Roll on 2008 !

Absoloutely brillaint night.Couldn't get over how good it was.This year was a huge success but my God next year will be something else when people hear what they missed!

Absolutely mighty craic shame the gambling had to finish when it did mind you twud have made f all difference to me as I finished up without a single chip!:( Got a nice consolation prize tho!!:D

Great night well done to all who organised it and for those who stayed away you missed one of the most enjoyable nights ive had at a GUFC function.

Absolutely brilliant nite. It was one of if not the best nites out for me in a very long time. Well done to all the organisers and as Conor H said hopefully next year will be even bigger and better

Class night, Mark Lowry and Ronan and all the organisers deserve a lot of credit. For those who missed out, make sure you dont miss it next year!

Another positive vote here, thought it was a class night and the casino theme was so different to the typical race night fund raisers that have become the norm....would definitely go again and recommend it to others...

Was highly impressed with the running of the casino night- this has great potential to be a really good fundraiser, even if the company doesn't come cheap. A very good night and I'll certainly attend again next year if I can.

Very professional set up. Well done GUST.
Next year, I will bring a few lads who I know will enjoy it.

great night, very well run. it was an awful lot better than i expected it to be and everyone that had a hand in it should take a bow
